If the changes work the Fair will continue for many years to come. If they don't it may be the last Fair. We want to make it a GREEN fair. We want to be able to continue running the Fair but if we don't get a lot less cars the fair will die! The good news is that admission to the Fair will be by voluntary donation! Car parking will be charged at £20 per vehicle regardless of the number of occupants. If you come by car with 3 or 4 people this will be great value. If you come on your own you may wish you had caught the bus! There will be a registered bus service from Bungay and from Halesworth and buses will run every half hour during the day and then every hour right up until 11pm. There will be a huge cycle parking area, and we expect to have organised cycle rides from neighbouring towns.
